ABSTRACT
Primary choriocarcinoma of the ovary (PCO) is rare. This can be gestational (GCO) or nongestational (NGCO) in origin. It is difficult to differentiate between CGO and NGCO. NGCO carries a worse prognosis than GCO. We present two cases of metastatic GCO who were treated successfully with combination chemotherapy and are alive and disease free at the time of reporting.
